This Republican cut in IRS funding is emblematic of their policy of protecting tax cheats who in turn grease their palm. If you want to destroy USA vote for Republicans.

And that’s without considering hiring quotas.
I have no sympathy for the IRS; in many cases they are their own worst enemy. But the answer is not in budget cutting, but in law simplification.

When you pay an IRS auditor $40,000 a year do you really thinks or

The auditor never asked to see income and banking receipts to verify cash flow which would have allowed her to generate an $ 80,000 gambling loss and still eat for the year. The IRS should actually hire retired CPAs who know their way around a tax return and a set of books, instead of going on the cheap and hiring people right of college.
